In the course of the apostles writing the Synoptic Gospels, many questions were raised but not answered. This literary work in no means infringes on the writing of the apostles and their effort to detail the life of Christ Jesus.What I have tried to do is answer some age-old questions that have gone unanswered since the scriptures were put together at the Council of Trent. I tried to write answering the questions in an informative way and also fun to read.I did take some liberties with locations and timelines. In doing so, I tried to set the stage in many instances for the parables that Christ used in his teachings; the characters that Christ called to his ministry; the bond between him and John the Baptist and his friends Mary, Martha, and Lazarus; and how Judas Iscariot targeted Christ''s ministry to become a hanger-on.Some events and timelines are taken out of the Infancy Gospel attributed to Apostle Thomas.Other events, such as why John the Baptist; his mother, Elizabeth; and his father, Zechariah, escaped the decree of Herod the Great to slaughter all the infants two years of age or younger in and around Bethlehem and Judea.Both Jesus and John the Baptist were within six months of age.This question was not answered in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.In Cana, at the wedding, did Jesus tell his mother that his "time had not come" and then turn and change the water to wine?In no way is this work authenticated by Bible scholars but is used strictly as a reference point in my narrative of Christ''s early life that is not covered in the Scriptures.I thank you and ask you to read this work with an open mind and heart and enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed writing and trying in my own humble way to answer some questions that have plagued me since I started reading the Bible.
